Mission: Leech Lake Legacy is an animal welfare organization that empowers Native American communities to enrich the lives of animals by providing resources and sharing information.

Vision: We envision a world where every reservation dog and cat is well cared for.

Core Belief: Leech Lake Legacy believes that by working together and collaborating with a larger network of animal welfare organizations in Minnesota, we will be able to do more for the animals and the pet owners of Leech Lake Reservation.

Non-discrimination statement: Leech Lake Legacy recognizes that our presence on Leech Lake Reservation and our partnerships with the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe, our volunteers, donors, clients, and supporters, and our partner vets, techs, shelters and rescues is an honor and a privilege. Our work together exemplifies the spirit of diversity, collaboration, respect, honesty, and transparency. Behaviors that do not embody our Mission, Vision, and Core Belief will not be tolerated. Leech Lake Legacy’s programs are available without regard to race, color, creed, religion, national origin, gender, age, marital status, familial status, disability, public assistance status, membership or activity in a local commission created for the purpose of dealing with discrimination, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression.

Together, we can do amazing things.
